On the positive side, Aaron Rowand rocked his sixteenth homer and Jimmy Rollins continues to live up to his boasts (something about owning the Cubs this time), Tagahito Iguchi continues to replicate Chase Utley's production, and Pat Burrell keeps on walking (three more times last night). Heck, even Abraham Nunez, making a rare start at third base, was 2-3 with a walk -- and they only managed four runs.

*Kyle Lohse makes his Phils' debut this afternoon at 2:20 in a really important game. I can handle a split with the charging Cubs en route to a weekend three-spot in Milwaukee. Losing three out of four to a Wild Card competitor would not be a good thing. The Cubs counter with lefty Sean Marshall.

**Writing for The Good Phight, MattS presents an impressive analysis of Adam Eaton's terrible 2007.
